After Being Reborn and Bound to a System, I Became a Rich, Beautiful, and Successful Woman

37: Suburban landJiang Li listened to Leng Mu’s introduction; he was indeed a Cold-faced Director, just like in the future.

”Hello, let’s go upstairs to talk!”

”Okay.”

Leng Mu was also a bit excited; seeing Jiang Li’s intent, there was a possibility of investment.

”Shang Xu, prepare some tea... fruit tea!”

Jiang Li remembered hearing an interview with Leng Mu in her past life, where he said he only drank fruit tea.

Leng Mu hadn’t expected the chairman to prepare fruit tea. He had already thought about how he would refuse tea, but hearing Jiang Li’s words now, he felt a slight touch in his heart.

Shang Xu’s office was below Jiang Li’s. After the two of them went upstairs...

Shang Xu followed closely behind; he had to go to the Internet Celebrity Department to find the fruit tea.

Before long, two cups of fruit tea were ready.

Jiang Li listened to Leng Mu talk about his script.

This script for doting love was written by Leng Mu himself.

’doting love’ tells the story of a woman who grew up carefree. Her parents fell ill and needed her heart. The woman was originally willing, but in the end, she discovered it was all a scam—a performance by her so-called parents to get her heart. Finally, the woman learned the truth. She wanted to escape but was caught and brought back, then imprisoned. In the end, the woman tried everything to escape this cage and her terrifying parents. The parents claimed they gave the woman life, so she should sacrifice it when they needed it; they questioned if she shouldn’t repay their years of upbringing... This is the synopsis for the first part of doting love.

This could be considered a prequel; if it turned out well, a second part would be filmed.

The second part, ’Imagination,’ tells of the woman finally escaping successfully and living her own life for five years. However, for some reason, her parents found her and she was captured again! Eventually, she learned she was betrayed by her boyfriend and her supposed best friend, who only saw her as an ATM. In the end, those five years were just her imagining a beautiful life. Her boyfriend saw her as a money-maker, and her friend saw her as an ATM. No one helped her; they abandoned their bonds for money. Heartbroken, the woman wanted to leave the world, taking everyone with her... After reading the synopses for both parts, Jiang Li thought it was no wonder no one was willing to invest. Putting aside whether it could pass censorship, few people would watch such a plot nowadays.

Using the debt of upbringing to exact personal revenge.

Jiang Li closed the folder without speaking, making Leng Mu a bit nervous.

”Um, Chairman Jiang, you...”

Jiang Li said, ”I agree to invest. With a funding of two billion, I hope you can film both parts!”

Leng Mu heard this and stammered, ”Two? Billion?”

Jiang Li smiled. ”Yes, two billion. I hope you can stay true to your original intention and focus entirely on the film. There’s no need to take other investments; the movie should be authentic, so there’s no need for product placements. Also, I want the scenes to be physically built; no special effects are needed.”

Jiang Li always felt that filming in real sets was best. Although special effects were impressive nowadays, they couldn’t compare to actors performing in a real environment, which allowed them to get more into character.

Leng Mu originally thought one hundred million would be good, but he didn’t expect... Then, hearing Jiang Li’s words, he said, ”Alright, Chairman Jiang, rest assured, I won’t let you down! Um...”

Jiang Li heard Leng Mu trail off. ”What’s wrong?”

”It’s just, Chairman Jiang, can I come to work at your company?”

Jiang Li wondered what it was. ”You can, but I have one requirement.”

Leng Mu asked, ”What is the requirement, Chairman Jiang?”

Jiang Li said, ”I hope that after you finish these two movies, you can continue writing scripts and include some roles for the company’s artists.”

Leng Mu replied, ”Alright, Chairman Jiang, rest assured.”

”Shang Xu!”

Shang Xu heard the call on the landline downstairs and immediately went up. ”Chairman Jiang.”

”Shang Xu, take Leng Mu and set up an office on your floor. From now on, he’s a member of Shengshi Entertainment.”

”Alright, Chairman Jiang,” Shang Xu said, then looked at Leng Mu, who was drinking fruit tea.

Jiang Li thought of something. ”Shang Xu, Leng Mu needs to prepare for the movie. If you have free time, accompany him, okay?”

”Alright, Chairman Jiang,” Shang Xu replied.

When Huo Qin finished his business trip and returned this afternoon, he saw an office being prepared on their floor.

At that moment, his wife, Guan Yue, arrived.

”Wife, who is this office for? I was away for a few days, and when I came back...”

Guan Yue looked up at her husband and then returned to her office.

Huo Qin followed closely. ”Wife...”

Guan Yue heard him and said, ”Shut up. That’s for a new director. By the way, mind your image in the company. I have things to do, so I’m leaving first. Remember to attend your son’s parent-teacher meeting today.”

Huo Qin watched his wife walk away without stopping and said gloomily, ”I know!”

For several days, Huo Qin didn’t see Shang Xu or the new director.

As a result, all the company’s work was dumped on him, and he had been working overtime for a week straight.

He felt very aggrieved when he saw Guan Yue return, but his wife was in a hurry to see their child sleeping on the sofa and ignored him.

”Alright, let’s go back. Shang Xu will be back tomorrow, so you can take a day off.”

Huo Qin heard this and said, ”That’s great! Wife, let’s go home right now.”

”Okay.”

These days, Guan Yue was also very busy because Luo Yiqing and Jiang Yijin had very tight schedules lately, so she had to keep running between them... Jiang Li didn’t know about the office matters; she was quite happy collecting money at home.

The two billion she had spent last time had all returned this week.

Today, Jiang Li exercised as usual and then went to have breakfast.

Jiang Nan had also gone to school.

Lu Zhen, the manager of the LM Building, called. ”Chairman Jiang, do you have time today?”

(To better distinguish between the LM Center Building and the Center Building, it is simply referred to as the LM Building.)

Jiang Li was confused. ”What’s wrong? I have time today.”

Then, Lu Zhen continued over the phone, ”It’s like this, Chairman Jiang. Chairman Fu from the Center Building wants to discuss a partnership with you.”

”What kind of partnership?”

Lu Zhen replied, ”I don’t know. He only said it would be discussed at tonight’s gathering.”

”Okay, I understand.”

After hanging up, although Jiang Li didn’t know what kind of partnership President Fu, who was at the top of the pyramid in Shanghai, would want to discuss, it was still a good thing.

Recently, the System had also rewarded her with two plots of land, and she had no idea what to do with them. Even if she were to build houses, she would need a partnership. This time, the Fu Family presented a good opportunity.

6:00 PM, Bright Moon Residence.

Jiang Li got out of the car, and Lu Zhen followed her into the Bright Moon Residence.

At the entrance, President Fu’s secretary, Zhou Ran, had been waiting for a long time.

Although he didn’t know Jiang Li, he recognized Lu Zhen from the LM Building.

He stepped forward, looked at Jiang Li, and said, ”Chairman Jiang, this way please. Our Chairman Fu is waiting for you.”

”Thank you, lead the way.”

Jiang Li and Lu Zhen followed Zhou Ran to Fu Youchi’s exclusive private room.

A man was sitting at the round table.

His entire being exuded maturity and stability, and his face showed few signs of age.
